Hi,

Crystal Dock v2.0 and Crystal Remix icon theme v2.1 are out now!

Crystal Dock v2.0

Crystal Dock is a cool dock (desktop panel) for Linux desktop, with the focus on attractive user interface, being simple and easy to use, and cross-desktop support.

Version 2.0 now supports KDE Plasma 6 on Wayland, as well as brings some visual refresh.

Crystal Remix icon theme v2.1

Crystal Remix is a Crystal icon theme for modern Linux desktop environments, created by combining/mixing different versions of the Crystal icon theme (that were originally created for KDE 3 desktop).

Version 2.1 brings updates for KDE Plasma 6.

Crystal Remix, in the most recent versions, uses mostly Crystal Project icons because I also think it's the best one out of the three, and also for consistency reason like you said. I will update the project description to reflect this. I will also try to increase the coverage when possible.

It's not a coincidence that Crystal Dock is similar to KoolDock -- they are both based on my previous dock KSmoothDock which I wrote for KDE3 and KDE Plasma 5. KoolDock was a fork of it during KDE3 time, and Crystal Dock is the successor dock. I changed the name mainly to reflect the change from a KDE-only dock to a cross-desktop KDE-first one.
